When not to ask the police for assistance

We know that for most of you this post will be an utter waste of time, but if you are one of our supporters that thought this would be a waste of time we ask you to read just a bit further to avoid making the same mistake John White did. At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not law-abiding, which is why we definitely do not condone illegal activity, but we would like to let you know that if you are going to perform an illegal act and leave a slip of paper with an address at the crime scene it might not be such a good idea to flag down a policeman to ask directions to said address, even if the officer doesn't happen to be the one investigating the crime you committed. If we can prevent just one slip-up of this nature, we will feel that we are making a difference in the world!
